StarCityGames.com has announced the schedule of their Magic: the Gathering 2011 StarCityGames.com Open Series. For 2011, the StarCityGames.com Open Series will feature two $50,000 invitationals, twice as many stops, increased prize payouts, the addition of two open drafts to the Sunday of each event, and the introduction of the StarCityGames.com Player’s Club spearhead the big changes for the upcoming year.

If you make Level 8 of the StarCityGames.com Player’s Club, you receive 4x copies of each new Standard Magic set, a $250 appearance fee at each StarCityGames.com Open, two byes at every Constructed StarCityGames.com Open tournament (not counting the Invitationals themselves), free entry into the StarCityGames.com Standard and Legacy Open tournaments each Open weekend, qualification for two StarCityGames.com Invitational tournaments that season, and a free pack of sleeves at each StarCityGames.com Open Weekend!
